Chalupa Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Great. Why can't it snow on a Monday? "Plan on 'no travel' in the Virginias, central and southern Pennsylvania, the Delmarva and much of New Jersey Friday night into Saturday." "Snowfall rates may reach 3 inches per hour." "Storm crews may not be able to keep up." "Accumulations have the potential to reach 2 feet in some areas." Snow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.:.impossible Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I'm getting conflicting reports. We are watching this closely because we are planning on driving up to Richmond tomorrow evening. RVA JAZZFEST is Saturday night and I do not want to pass on the opportunity to hear my brother playing with Ray Anderson. Late Friday night/Saturday has the potential for some quick accumulation, but interstates should be fine Friday and Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7/4 Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'm on call to do some driving, but I'm sure the roads will be plowed and I'm using a 4wd truck anyways. No biggie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefan Wood Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Looking out the window now -- the car's buried already! And it won't stop snowing until tomorrow night..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheldonm Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 ...getting a bit in Indy as well.....several inches on the ground and more overnight. Not a lot for some parts of the US but enough to create havoc here. m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neal Pomea Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 (edited) I just hope I can open the door to my house, that I am not shut in! I woke up and looked outside and indeed it looks to me like about 2 feet of snow on my patio. We're going to be hobbled by this for days. You know what JFK said about DC. Something like, it has all the charm of a northern city and all the efficiency of a southern one!

Chalupa Posted February 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Just finished my 2nd round of shoveling. I'd say about 15 inches so far and it's still coming down. I think this storm might end up being worse than the one in December. The wind is making some insanely large snow drifts.Man, I'm so tired. I'm ready for a beer.

sidewinder Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 (edited) Hope it clears up before I get over to Philly ! Edited February 6, 2010 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vajerzy Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 About 8 inches here.....lots of sleet/rain last night which spared us larger amounts. Snowing real hard now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, did you see that one handed goal by Ovechkin w/8 secs to go in 2nd last night? Holy s***.......that looked amazing! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-D4fBkdnoU Like the man said, "another highlight reel goal." Ovechkin is a remarkable offensive talent. I just wish he had more (or any) of a defensive presence. He is kind of a cherry picker. This goal is a textbook example as you can see him circling the blue line waiting for an outlet pass while the rest of the play is down low. How far the Caps go in the playoffs is going to boil down to goaltending. I'm not sure I'd want to stake my claim with their with the guys they have between the pipes. More to the subject at hand, sounds like a good time to settle in with some good music and a toddy or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Johnson Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 This is insane! At least 1.5 feet where I'm at in Philly--a few blocks from J.H. Deely! Had to run out to grab a few groceries, and I would never have made it, let alone out of the parking lot, without four wheel drive...

Stefan Wood Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 I'm at my fiancee's over in Herndon and after doing a bit of shoveling, I got a pile of music to listen to. Listened to the Kenny Dorham Uptown cd and have been enjoying that very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewHill Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Man, we got lucky here in Cleveland; just a few inches of snow and its sunny now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalupa Posted February 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 I just finished shoveling round #3. We have 2 feet easy. Everything is closed/canceled for tonight and tomorrow. I'm just hoping that The Residents show on Monday is still on. And they're talking about more snow on Tuesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron S Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Definitely 2 feet--at least--up here in northwest Philly. And still no sign of stopping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalupa Posted February 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 The latest official snow total at Philadelphia International Airport came in at 26.7 inches, beating the Dec. 19-20 storm by better than 3 inches and making it the second-biggest Philadelphia snow in the period of record. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/weather/Snow_--_2_feet__27_inches.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Wood Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 I-95 is shut down. Traffic is stuck out there, mostly tractor trailers, who have no business being out there. 30" and counting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
